As these changes unfold, John Matheson, co-founder and managing director of Asset Token Ventures and an expert in both certified public accounting and law, shared his insights on the implications of Korea’s approach to crypto regulation.

随着这些变化的发展，资产代币冒险公司的联合创始人兼董事总经理，经过认证的公共会计和法律专家，分享了他对韩国对加密货币法规的影响的见解。

"We're observing a global trend towards integrating digital assets into traditional financial markets, and Korea appears to be a step ahead in this journey," said Matheson, whose firm is based in the U.S. Virgin Islands and focuses on introducing various real-world asset (RWA) tokens, with its flagship product being the mortgage-backed securities-oriented MBSToken. This provides security, transparency and stability in the cryptocurrency market.

Matheson说：“我们正在观察将数字资产整合到传统金融市场中的全球趋势，而韩国似乎在这一旅程中迈出了一步。” Matheson说，他的公司位于美国维尔京群岛，专注于引入各种现实世界中的资产（RWA）代币，其旗舰产品是抵押贷款支持的证券与以证券为中心的MbStoper。这提供了加密货币市场的安全性，透明度和稳定性。

"The pilot program on corporate investments in cryptocurrencies is a strong signal, especially with the emphasis on seamless participation and interoperability with global markets."

The Financial Services Commission (FSC) in Korea is rolling out a pilot program to permit non-profit entities to open non-commercial real-name accounts at commercial lenders. The initiative is part of broader efforts to integrate cryptocurrencies into the mainstream financial system and create a more favorable environment for the industry.

韩国的金融服务委员会（FSC）正在推出一项试点计划，以允许非营利实体在商业贷方开设非商业现实名称帐户。该倡议是将加密货币整合到主流金融体系并为行业创造更有利的环境的更广泛努力的一部分。

"The initiative will be kicking off with non-profit entities and crypto exchanges, with the timeframe set for June. For listed firms and investment firms, the plan is to expand the service by the third quarter of this year," a commission official explained.

一位委员会官员解释说：“该倡议将从非营利实体和加密交易所开始，定于6月。对于上市公司和投资公司，该计划将在今年的第三季度扩大服务。”

The move is part of a broader effort by the South Korean government to promote the use of blockchain technology and digital assets. Earlier this year, the government announced that it would be investing 1 trillion won ($793 million) over five years to create a "digital asset ecosystem."

此举是韩国政府在促进区块链技术和数字资产使用的更广泛努力的一部分。今年早些时候，政府宣布将在五年内投资1万亿韩元（7.93亿美元），以创建“数字资产生态系统”。

"The Korean government's approach demonstrates that digital assets can coexist with traditional finance under clear regulations, providing a blueprint for other nations," Matheson added. "It also indicates that crypto trading will become more mainstream, increasing institutional participation and investor confidence. As we see the U.S. Congress and President [Donald] Trump forming a working group to discuss a regulatory framework for digital assets, the global landscape is converging on this critical topic."

Matheson补充说：“韩国政府的方法表明，数字资产可以与明确法规的传统财务共存，为其他国家提供蓝图。” “这也表明，加密货币交易将变得更加主流，增加机构参与和投资者的信心。当我们看到美国国会和总统[唐纳德]特朗普组成一个工作组，讨论一个数字资产的监管框架，全球景观正汇聚在这个关键的话题上。”
